Another webpage tauting the "motorcycle specific" lubrication produts.  I guess if you are willing to spend the money on the same stuff as car antifreeze... I have nice mountain property for sale in Fl.



Use Phosphate free AF found at your local auto parts store (red or orange stuff).



If you insist that the MC cooling systems are somehow different than a cars, please, indulge me with a detailed description...

well if you need to be indulged Jay



the one overwelming differance between a car cooling system and that of a modern motorcycle is that a car system usually includes a seperate heat exchanger to heat the cabin :D
